Nations League games are more important for the weaker National sides. Gives them extra chances to qualify for World Cups and the Euros. Might just be glorified friendlies for countries like us who will qualify for everything anyway but Sweden miss their fair share of tournaments, I’m sure...

That is a massive false equivalence. We can’t control where products that we need for daily life come from. We can however chose whether or not to visit these countries and directly hand over money to the regime.

I’m not saying that signing loan players on permanents is bad, it’s obviously worked very well for us with O’Hare, Sheaf and Gyokeres, but you can’t rely on doing it every season as players like Maatsen simply aren’t going to be available. I just think, for whatever reason, the recruitment...

What’s huh about it? We signed 6 players last summer, 2 were loanees from the season before, 1 was Moore, 1 was Enobakhare (lol) and the other 2 are Kane and Waghorn who were already want to get rid of. Gyokeres and Sheaf were presumably scouted the season before, so that leaves 4 players...

Not ideal that 3/6 of last summer’s permanent signings could be out of the door within 12 months. Add to that Sheaf and Gyokeres were 2 out of the remaining 3, and scouted the season before and it’s not a particularly glowing indictment of last summer’s scouting processes. Recruitment of...

What a player is worth should be dictated by the selling club. We should want to keep Gyokeres, not sell him on the cheap to do a favour to Fulham or Middlesbrough.

Anything less than £10m would be a huge disappointment. He’s just scored 16 Championship goals, that’s the kind of fee these players go for.

The benefits of being slap bang in the middle of the country.

The sleeves do look a bit shit actually

Not the most awe-inspiring names being thrown around at the moment.

If we sold Gyokeres to Middlesbrough and replaced him with a kid from Palace on loan I think I’d ask for a refund on my season ticket.

Not the most exciting names to kick things off…

haha he must have changed it after being called out, last time I looked on his profile it just said he’d been going for 60 years.

Unbelievably weird bloke. Claims to be in his 60s-70s as well!

Seriously doubt we were ever interested in this guy. People on Twitter just Googled out of contract centre backs in the Eredivise. Just went back through the thread and the rumour was started by ‘skyblues12thman’ on Instagram and reposted by CoventryKing (aka the guy on Twitter who spends all...

Don’t you have to pay for his Patreon now to the get the rumours? He’s usually pretty spot on though. Only times I can ever remember him tweeting about us were when we signed JCH in League Two and when we signed Sheaf, however.

Love it. Best shirt home Hummel have given us yet, and miles better than last years.

Musonda seems like a pretty decent guess, although he has ‘2 cup appearances and released in the summer’ written all over him with his appearance record. Would hope that we were looking to bring in someone with a bit more pedigree.

No idea to be honest. Could just be over caution at the start of the season but it’s hard to put your finger on. Definitely a noticeable pattern though.

I think you’re really over-estimating this supposed hatred for Andy Turner at the club. He’s been covering games for 15+ years now, it’s pretty naive to suggest that he has zero connections to anyone who works for/has worked for the club in that time. We’re a Championship football club, not Fort...
